Newly revised data for Cote d'Ivoire's construction sector has changed the historic trend significantly, but forecasts remain relatively similar given the number of projects under way and in the pipeline. Between 2015 and 2020 we expect growth to average 7.8%, driven by major investments to develop the country's transport and power infrastructure. The biggest threat remains an uptick in political risk, but a significant deterioration in the political climate is not our core view.

A number of mega projects, in line with the country's USD22.8bn National Development Plan, mean that significant investment is taking place in the country's infrastructure sector. Government revenues are expected to remain conducive to investment, while private investment has been increasing. Côte d'Ivoire is experiencing a boom in investment in the transport and power sectors, while growing natural resource investment is creating additional demand for new capacity.
